McPain's biggest problem may not be that he is a leftist RINO who hates conservatives, as bad as that fact is on its own. Let's Face it.....he is nuts! He makes Ron Paul and his kooks look sane.
Sen. Thad Cochran of Mississippi was quoted saying a few days ago that:
"The thought of him being president sends a cold chill down my spine...He is erratic. He is hotheaded. He loses his temper and it worries me" http://www.ajc.com/opinion/content/opinion/bookman/stories/2008/02/06/bookmaned_0207.html
Can you all remember his rage in 2000, when he trashed evangelical Christians, and compared Rev. Robertson and the late Rev. Falwell to Farrakhan and Sharpton? He has repeatedly lost his temper in his low-stress job as a US Senator. How is he going to handle the high stress of the Oval Office? Is he mentally and psychologically up to it? If conservatives make him mad when he is President, such as opposing a second attempt at amnesty, what do you think he will do to them? Unleash the IRS? Worse?
McCain's believes that America owes him the Presidency, because he suffered as a POW in Vietnam. He does not believe that non-Veterans have the right to question any of the pig-headed decisions he makes. His hateful attacks on Romney during the last primary debate, denigrating Romney's achievements as a businessman, and saying that he did not serve his country for profit, was deeply troubling. And his twisting of Romney's comments about Bob Dole, to hint at Romney's lack of military service, was just nasty.
When he was under investigation over his involvement in the Keating Five scandal in the 1980s, he repeatedly played the Vietnam card, which intimidated those investigating him. The implication was that veterans who have been in combat deserve special treatment, and cannot be subjected to the same laws as the rest of us. McInsane has played the Vietnam card far more than John Kerry.
What do you think would happen, if congress were to try to impeach him for misconduct as President? He would constantly remind the congressmen that they were not tortured in Nam.
If Russia was to p!ss him off, would he bomb them? Do you trust McNuts with nukes?
Not if you steal his strawberries.
Should pinochet be trusted with a keyboard?
Then maybe they'll look for something other than nominal Christianity when picking a presidential candidate in 2012.
Agreed. It is silly to trust Johnny Kosovo with his mother’s Model A, not to mention nukes.
When dealing with crazies it could be a benefit to be (or at least seem) crazy yourself. It makes us nervous to think of Ahmanidiot with nukes - it might just make his handlers nervous to think of McCain with nukes.
This is an absolutely ridiculous post. You sound like the whiny leftists that said Reagan was mad and could not be trusted with nukes. Quit the histrionics.
Riiight. Just keep telling that to yourself as President McCain lovingly fondles the nuclear football.
You're entitled to argue that he's not stable if you wish, but as to the specific points you raise
- Ronaldus Maximus once joked about bombing the Russians
- He has already explained that by gooks he meant only the Vietnamese communists who tortured him. You can call him insensitive if you like, but that does not make him unstable.
I suppose there isn’t much difference between an islamic fanatic with an a bomb and john McC, the only difference really would be the targets.
Be afraid amadinutjob!
We cancel one another out a bit, I suspect. I'd vote for Huckabee 1000 times before I would cast one for McCain or for the Spineless Chameleon (Romney.) Out of what is left, he is the only one that would get judges and the 2nd Amendment correct.
Oh, c’mon... does anyone really care if we all wake up on January 21st and learn that Hanoi has become a glass parking lot? ;-)
Speechless.
Short answer, no.
Long answer. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place. Think of the happy place.
‘and makes jokes about bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb bomb Iran (to the tune of Barbara Ann)?’
That’s one of McCain’s few positives! lol
Truthfully, I think it was tongue in cheek and intended to remind the listener of Reagan’s “Russia has been outlawed. The bombs will start flying in ten minutes.” comments of yore.
Lord help the world if this unstable, egotistical, backstabbing little man is elected.
Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy race!
Where is Johnny Smith to handle Greg Stillson when you need him?
Indeed.
